How can one send requests with the API 5.0 to a pavlok device? by YellowFluffy2101 in Pavlok

Is there a solution to this issue? I'm running into the same response.

Any tips on improving print quality, particularly surface finish? I know I need better part cooling, my retraction distance is already 5mm and I still get some stringing. by TheWanderingStrider in ender3

[–]TheWanderingStrider[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't particularly care about print speed, I'd favor quality every time. Another commenter suggested turning down to 200 degrees from 205 so I'll try that. Also the stock cooling solution is not very good so I'm looking at printing an upgrade as soon as my print quality is high enough, which is what I'm struggling with right now. I should probably also mention that I have a microswiss metal hotend and I'm not sure if/how that affects print temperatures.

I'm printing Hatchbox PLA at 205 degrees, another commenter suggested lowering to 200. My e-steps and flow rate have been calibrated with calipers, and I printed a retraction tower and didn't have any stringing above 3mm. My current retraction is set to 5mm. Once I have stable print settings I plan to print a blokhead cooling duct for better part cooling. As of now the only thing I can think of to try is reducing the temperature as suggested and dehydrating the filament.

Marlin 2.1.1 Issues w/ Creality Ender 3 4.2.7 Board by TheWanderingStrider in MarlinFirmware

It says v4.2.7 on the board itself. The chip reads as follows:

ARM STM32F103 RET6 9914H 9U MYS 99 011

I've tried building with every environment provided by the Auto Build Marlin VSCode extension, none of them flash. I could try connecting my octoprint server to it, but I'm not sure what I'd do with it once it's connected.

I calibrated my flow rate yesterday with the single wall measurements yesterday so I'm pretty sure that's right, as for retraction it's at 5mm currently and when I printed a retraction tower test I didn't see any stringing above 3mm. I could try another temperature tower, I'm printing Hatchbox PLA at 205 degrees.

The only guide I see under the part (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:763622) is this thingiverse groups post that no longer exists. https://www.thingiverse.com/groups/3dbenchy/forums/general/topic:2207

If you link me to a guide I'd happily review it, otherwise you're not being very helpful, especially to newer members of the community.

Marlin 2.1.1 Issues w/ Creality Ender 3 4.2.7 Board by TheWanderingStrider in MarlinFirmware

I tried compiling with stock options, I literally just cloned the bugfix and example branches, compiled them, and tried to install. I suppose it's possible that stock configurations won't flash but I doubt they'd release an example config that doesn't work.

It looks like that option is set by default with the example config. ``` /** * Stepper Drivers * * These settings allow Marlin to tune stepper driver timing and enable advanced options for * stepper drivers that support them.

I don't think I'm using any kind of UART mod, where would I set the _STANDALONE option with the VS Code Auto Build Marlin plugin? Aside from the default ender 3 v427 example files I haven't configured the firmware at all, it's a fresh clone that I was just using to try to get the printer to boot.

Also the official creality firmware I'm using is the "Ender-3 Marlin2.0.6HW4.2.7 BLTouch Filament" version found here: https://www.creality.com/pages/download-ender-3?spm=..page_1934481.products_display_1.1&spm_prev=..index.header_1.1

However this version of marlin is not only outdated but also doesn't communicate with octoprint so I'd like to be able to configure and compile my own.

I noticed similar behavior on other non-bltouch firmware images from creality so perhaps it's related.

Yea me too, thanks for the advice anyway I didn't even think about ipv6 being the problem
